My beloved and revered Master!

At this moment I don't know how to use words to describe the feeling I have about You, because there is no language in this world that can express Your most high, sacred divinity and mysteries.

Upon discovering You through Your lecture videotapes, I immediately thought that all the things that I have longed for in my life and have not been able to get are in You. Furthermore, I had a vague impression that my poor little soul had seemingly wandered in pain through countless centuries and now, I have found an eternal place to rest from the confining, mundane world.

My life was but a chain of many days lived in miserable poverty, in illness. It seemed that for many years, I did not have a good night's sleep and my illness continued to torture me until physical exhaustion. Many nights I tossed and turned restlessly in bed, thinking that I had failed in the duties of being a good wife and mother, much less a good citizen who was useful to society. Therefore, I prayed many nights that God in Hiers compassion would let me return to dust. I was floundering and being dragged down each day to an abyss without any help from anyone. My husband and loved ones were in pain and helpless to assist me.

How wonderful it was that You came to me, it was a miracle. You stretched Your miraculous hand to catch me from falling down into the abyss. Since meeting You, I have felt as if I was being elevated. All the chains that tied me to the meaningless mundane world seemed to have fallen apart. Everything inside me seems to have cracked open for a certain world to come in and bring its great power to fill me little by little. My illness is gradually disappearing. A wonderful power has pulled me toward the bright light ahead -- so near, so near indeed.

Before, aside from the pain caused by illness, I also felt an invisible power imposed upon the fate of our family. I was always worried and unhappy when dealing with the hardships of life. Moreover, I was still confused by the human tragedies that take place every day, everywhere without the intercession of the Most High to change them. I am still in quiet mourning for everyone's fate.

Now, after meeting You, all of my soul has been awakened from a terrible nightmare. I feel lighthearted and uplifted. All my worries about material life have suddenly vanished. I have become a totally different person, although it is not that we are trouble-free, but we believe that there is nothing that we can not overcome when we follow Your call to act in accordance with "God's will".

When I received Your blessing through Your videotapes and several News magazines and sample booklet, especially the chapter entitled "Why People Must Be Vegetarian," I immediately decided to become a vegetarian myself without any hesitation or difficulty. A few days later my husband and daughter also became vegetarians. I feel extremely happy because, like me, my husband and daughter also revere and love You and follow Your teachings. It is as if I have rediscovered a treasure but not one of this world. "Is it gold, silver, diamonds and money?" No! These things don't even compare. "Was I reborn?" Not only did You save me from falling into hell but You also opened my wisdom eye and elevated me from a world full of suffering and sin into a world that I had never dreamed of.

Now, each day I feel that I don't have enough time to watch Your tapes and read Your books, because of my weak physical condition. I feel that I have to do it quickly, do all the things that You have taught me, for each of Your words is priceless to me. My whole family longs for the day when they can "get initiated" by You, for it will be the most sacred day of our human lives.

Since childhood, I have been fond of literature and poetry, and become extremely excited when listening to You recite poetry. Every time I listen, I am unable to control my emotions. I was very surprised when listening to my most favorite poems of Yours. It turned out that I also have hobbies just like Yours. I feel that I live in happiness because You are not only in the highest place but also lovingly near us.

I have read two of Your poetry collections. Your poems are extremely profound and full of the ups and downs of life. Each verse, each poem is a condensed form resting on the subconscious level to stir up the consciousness deep in the heart. I have cried a lot for Your love! When I read "Silent Tears," I was suddenly astonished - You are indeed a super human being and thus, Your poems can not be ordinary. A lay person like me is unable to fully comprehend and enjoy it all. I can only stand outside to express my admiration. Hopefully one day I will be able to step inside.

My whole family sincerely wishes You peace and health so that You may take care of and guide sentient beings toward liberation. We long for the day when we can see You in person.
